Vacation House Plans

Vacation style home plans evoke a casual and relaxed atmosphere. Whether on a lakeshore, river front, or a remote rural setting, these home plans are designed to capture views and make its owners feel like they are immersed in their outdoor setting. The exteriors may have lap siding with standing seam metal roofs reflecting a true cottage style. They may be stucco clad with barrel tile roofs indicative of a Mediterranean villa, or even crafted in a New England or Nantucket style. Each house plan is completely at home in a vacation resort environment. Most of our plans are open, airy and feature casual layouts that complement the relaxed living that is desired in such vacation style homes. Most feature informal great rooms that are interconnected with bright spacious kitchens and view oriented dining spaces. Many vacation style house plans feature elevated living spaces over an island style basement that is fitted to coastal site conditions or where flooding is a concern. These lower spaces may feature parking, storage and unfinished areas that can be converted into such uses as game rooms, exercise rooms, or flex rooms that can accommodate visiting grandchildren (conditional upon site zoning requirements). All our vacation style home plans incorporate sustainable design features to ensure maintenance free living, energy efficient usage and lasting value.
